“THE LIFE OF A BARREL” TIX ON SALE

January 2, 2015by treyster

Monday, Jan 26th – WICKER PARK, 7pm. UPDATE: This event is SOLD OUT.
We’re going in deep to taste how barrels impact and impart flavor on some of our favorite beverages with Goose Island Beer Co and Heaven Hill Distilleries. Chris Tabor from Heaven Hill will be explaining the first “life cycle” as we taste 4 whiskeys, from an un-aged spirit to an old timer. Then Mike Siegel, Director of Innovation at Goose Island will be pouring and discussing the Second and Third rounds of the barrel’s use from GI’s barrel-aging program, using mostly Heaven Hill wood. This will be a pre-sold, ticketed event as we only have limited beer and whiskey to pour. Ticket price is $60 (includes tax & gratuity) and gets purchaser pours of the 4 whiskeys and 4 beers listed below, as well as snacks (Philly pretzels, house-made beer cheese). Additional food and beverage items will be available for purchase.
